Vanderbilt's Sonny Gray

In addition to the rash of upsets, Friday’s slate also featured a pair of series openers with national ramifications – as #4 TCU held off #11 Cal State Fullerton (4-1) while #3 Vanderbilt won a similarly close game vs. visiting #12 Stanford (2-1). There were eight games stretching across the country that featured head-to-head showdowns between top-50 teams in the CB360 Composite National Rankings, with three of those results producing noteworthy upsets: #26 California not only beat #21 Coastal Carolina in its own home tournament (at Myrtle Beach) but did so in dominating fashion, 17-0 … #39 Oregon State edged #20 Connecticut, 2-0 (in Corpus Christi, Texas) … and #43 Long Beach State took a 2-1 decision from visiting #17 Arizona.

D.J. Long and his Delaware teammates opened their series at #8 Arizona State with an upset win.
